General Motors and Chevrolet can barely contain their enthusiasm for the new 2014 Chevrolet SS fullsize performance sedan, and have promoted the Holden Commodore-based sedan aggressively in the run-up to the flagship NASCAR event, the Daytona 500. In addition to the debut of the new sixth-generation Sprint Cup car, in which GM reportedly played an influential role, Danica Patrick taking pole position in (you guessed it) a Chevrolet SS, GM North America CEO Mark Reuss will be pacing the Daytona 500 in Chevrolet’s new flagship sedan.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS represents the bowtie brand’s first rear-drive, V-8-powered performance sedan since the discontinuation of the 1996 Impala SS. The model is a non-consecutive continuation of the performance tradition started by the Pontiac G8 GXP, which shared the same 415-hp 6.2-liter LS3 V-8 with the SS. Unlike the G8 GXP, however, the SS will initially be offered only with a six-speed automatic. Until its official debut, some believed the sedan would share the C7 Corvette’s direct-injected LT1 engine, which may eventually be offered as the fifth-generation small block migrates throughout GM’s global lineup.

Like the G8 was, the SS is made at Holden’s plant in Elizabeth, South Australia. The next-generation SS, if there is one, may be made at GM’s plant in Oshawa, Ontario, which currently builds the Camaro and Impala.
